Abysmal record for k-12: https://washingtonstatereportcard.ospi.k12.wa.us/ReportCard/ViewSchoolOrDistrict/103300. WA needs to do better - Get rid of superintendent Chris Reykdal.

Pathetic. On NextDoor I see yet another teacher asking for donations of supplies. Donations, when 90% of our property tax goes to schools. This time she is asking for bookcases, desks and other aids for studying AT SCHOOL because so many students’ home lives are chaotic and so the kids can’t study there. There’s even a funding website for teachers so donors can help them meet needs their districts don’t fund. It never, ever ends.

I remember when I was in elementary school, the teachers had cases of pencils/erasers/paper to do their jobs. We could bring our own, but it was never required. No asks for parents to supply tissues, paper towels, glue, or anything like that - the school just did it out of their budget. No idea why that's not still a thing.

We came very close last time despite losing the governor & presidential races here. It is possible!
